THE FIRST R, R. IN THE UNI
: TED BTATES..
The first railroadin thig country
was built in 1826, from the granite
quarries of Quincy, Masg., to the
Nepounset river. Tt was 2 miles In
lengeh, and run by horse power.
The first locomotive used inthe U
nited States was one brought from
England in 1828, and the fivst of A
merica made wag “Tom Thumb,”
constructed by Peter Cooper two
years later, and placed on the Bal
timore and Ohio road—the first
prssenger line. The first ex@ae
averaged about 14 miles an houvr,
and “many people predicted in A
meriea, ag thoy had in England,
that it would never be able to move
jits weight, but that the yheels
‘would spin round upon the rail.
Others thoyght {t would destroy
the value of farming lands by
frightening all the animals, and
would stop the raising of sheep,
because their wool would be black
enened by the smoke,” In 1830
there were 43 miles of railway in the
United States, and in 1883, 117,717
miles.
HUNG UP HIGH.. ¢
Was it suicide ov lynck law?
That isthe question now being
dehated by the Atlanta police foree,
the coroner, the sheriff and his
deputies.
Early yesterday morning Pat
rolmen Myers and a Few were qui
etly patroling their beat in Brook
lyn. The moon gave an abundance
of light, and as the two men reach
ed the junction of Marietta and
Walton street they approached the
water fountain for the] purpose
of getting a drvink of water, it be
ing too early in the morning to get
into a bar. Patrolman Few drank
first and as he raised his head "Lis
eves took in the heavens, & in their
travels fell upon something hang
ing from a cross heaa on a tele
craph pole. The object resembled
a man gnd after looking at it a
second said:
“See, Myers, ain’t that a man
Thanging on that pale?”
Patrolman Myer’s eves followed
his companion’s index finger un
til they rested upon the object. He
shaded his eyes with his hand and
eazed fully 60 scconds upon the
objeet. His breath came thick and
fast, but finally his speech return
ed and he replied :
“Yes by jingo it is a man and he
is dead. He has been hung. See,
there’s the ropa about his ucck,
and the other end i 3 fastened to
that eross-beam. What shall we
do?¥
“Climb the pole and cut him
down,” responded his pal. ;
“Who?” asked Patrolman DMyers:
“You. Lam too old to get yp
there”
“I am too young. Besides, I
promised my wife before I married
{ vould not climb any telepraph
noles. Now, if this was a telephoye
poled I swould not be foond up you
see.”
“Oh, yes, T scc. But what are we
to do? Maybe the poor feilow s
n2t dead. Something should be
done and that quick.”
“\¥ell, Pl stay here while you go
for Captain Crim,” lie can climb.
I haye seen that man go up alight
ning rod te-catch a thief—" but be
fore he could finish Patrolman
Rew was beating O'Leary’s time
down into the. city. At
every corner stone club dropped
until his signal received an answer,
and then would start out again
hoping that his signal had hHeen
angwored by Captain Crim, but ev
erv time he was met by a patrol
man until he reached the cematery,
when he ran upon his captain.
“Why what’s the maatter?” stern
ly agked the captain greatly sur
prised at finding the patrolman off
his heat out of his ward and nearly
ut of the city.
“Oh, my God, captain, them boys
down in Brooklyn have hung a
man,?
“What?!
“Yog, sir. They Have hung a
man. Huang him to a telegraph
pole. Hung himso high I can’t
reach him. He is dead by this
time,”
In a double-quiek the 2 peclers
made for Brooklyn. When they
reached the place they found Pa
trolman Myers shaking, his teeth
rattling and his body bathed in
perspiration, and belore the cap
tain could open his mouth the pa
trohnan said :
“Captain, he ain’t dead! T seen
him move and heard him groan.”
“YWell, if thats the ease there’s no
time to lose. Here, Few, hold my
coat anc stick, Myers, help me off
with my boots. Now, give me a
hist Here goes,” anid with the a
gility of a sxuirrel the captain went
up the telegraph pola. i
“Td he dead.” asked Patrolman
Myers, as gon as the eaptain reach
ed the bady, |
“Who is he,'” put In patrolipan I
Few at the same time, !
“Don't know,” answered thg gap- |
tain, “Hero eatch him, 1 am ggzing:

Captain erim cut the rovelahd down
Il’utro]nmn Myers and whey Cap
tain Crim came down he couid
hardly tell which was the dead man.
Finally Patrolman Myers came a
round all right, and then Captain,
frim pexamined the body, The
shoes, glooves, pantaloons and
[u:nt all indieated that he was a la
horing man. The lang flowing beard
showed that he was well up in
yearg, but neither the trio knew
him. The captain Jifted the hody
and ag soon as he did so he . “tuni.
bled,” but without giving it away
to his companions he and they
carried it to, the gtation hongse
where the coroner and the county
physician viewed it. The county
physician made an examination
and found that the man had been
made of cotton and hay and this
